Kota Bumi Sdn. Bhd. is one of the very few Bumiputera Companies in Sabah operating an automotive service centre. It was first established in January, 1986 with 4 workers and a capital of RM24,000.00 in retailing tyres on a rented shop lot in Luyang, Kota Kinabalu. In 1987 the company moved to Kepayan into a bigger rented workshop and added Wheel Alignment & General Servicing into its services until 1989.In 1989 Kota Bumi moved into its own property measuring 10,500 square feet at KM 18, Lok Kawi Light Industrial Estate. It was from this point that it was able to provide a greater range of services supported by a team of 8 workers.
In 2004, Kota Bumi Sdn Bhd secured the opportunity to become EON (Edaran Otomobil National Berhad) Franchise Service Dealer. In 2007 we were upgraded by EON and authorized by PIAM to carry out collision repairs for all vehicles. The company is now fully capable of providing a comprehensive range of services including collision repair. The collision repair encompassed panel beating and spray painting services using up-to-date equipment. This added service is located on 12,000 square feet of land purchased by the Company and is almost adjacent to the present service centre.
The company at its present location serves a large clientele in Lok Kawi, Kinarut, Kawang, Papar, Putatan, Petagas, and Penampang. Presently, Kota Bumi has 4 managerial & executive staff with 16 workers who are the backbone of our good service to our customers.
